Request for Guidance: STM32 Program Steps

I want  to understand the sequential steps involved in developing STM32 programs. Could you please provide me with a concise breakdown or outline of these steps?

Much the same as developing any programs:

  1. Define the problem you need to solve
  2. Design a solution to that problem
  3. Implement the solution
  4. Test it
  5. Ship it!
  6. Maintain it.

There will, of course, be iterations among those steps.

The big difference between embedded microcontroller projects (including STM32) and "general" programming is that your problem & solution are not purely software - they will include hardware (electronics, etc).

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
